Question 11 year old PCS has trouble attending school. Taken from me PLEASE if you have experi

Hello,
I am a Mother of 3 children 21 14 and 11. Two eldest are a b students and never had attendance issues.
Youngest is 11 and has had a severe concussion and then a 2nd.
She is riddled with anxiety. She has missed school and they took her from me last Tuesday. This was and continues to be our darkest time as a very close family.
PLEASE if you know anyone who has experienced these school attendance issues please touch base with me.
I have read that this is a symptom of PCS.

Most Gratefully
Karen

Karen,

Welcome to NeuroTalk. I am sorry to hear of your ordeal.

What state do you live in ?
Are you able to be home with your daughter ?

Have you asked for a IEP 504 plan to be established for her.

What can you tell us about her injury, diagnosis and treatments ?
What symptoms does she manifest besides anxiety ?
Has she has a NeuroPsychologocal Assessment or educational disability evaluation ?

Is she on any meds or are they wanting to put her on meds ?

We are here for you both.

My best to you.
